The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

car sector is far too narrow...and we didnt really need china for that.

But it is highly visible, and uses a lot of resources and labor.

...the more complex the item and supply chain (e.g., high end electronics),

Boeing used to be a very visible example of high end engineering and production. But that company is so fouled up now, that it is hemorrhaging market share. What's worse, management doesn't seem concerned with loss of commercial market share, as they cozy up with the Pentagon. Thing is, Boeing is so fouled up even the Pentagon is pushing back, recently cancelling it's order for the E-7, a proposed replacement for the E-3 AWACS, due to cost and schedule overruns.
